St.
Matthew’s College North is a lay, coeducational,
bilingual school which consists of Kindergarten, Junior,
Middle and Senior School. The school has approximately
1100 students and its campus stands in a 17 hectare
site located in Pilar, a city in the northern suburbs
of Buenos Aires.
Since its foundation, the school has followed a policy
of continuous improvement and expansion.
Our integrated bilingual programme targets to the highest
standard in academic education, sports, the arts and
a complete and solid formation of every aspect of a
student’s personality.
St. Matthew’s College’s main goal is to
give students an exemplary ethical grounding and prepare
them for life in higher education at any university.
Our Kindergarten offers a safe, warm and nurturing learning
environment. Children are challenged and stimulated
through a variety of activities to learn through discovery.
The Junior School curriculum is roughly half- day Spanish
and half- day English medium teaching. Children learn
in a warm and caring environment which makes for happy
and creative learning of the English language.
As from Middle School our local academic programs are
officially recognized as bilingual, and French and Portuguese
are incorporated as a third language. In Senior School,
instruction carried out in English leads to the local
bilingual diploma, IGCSE exams administered by the University
of Cambridge and the IB Diploma Programme, offered by
the International Baccalaureate Organization.
The school offers a wide programme of sports: hockey,
rugby, volley, athletics, and special activities such
as: Music, Art, Drama, Choir, Chess, Community Service,
and Religion, all of which are practiced daily on the
school’s campus.
For several years now, the school offers an international
exchange programme with different bilingual schools
from around the world such as United Kingdom, Australia,
Chile and others. |
